FAST Autocross - Dec 28 - Lakeland

I like the grid/timing set up like this. Not sure why, but it just feels better this way....

May 26 at Lakeland

I guess I can let this cat out of the bag: We have been approved for another two events at Lakeland. July and November. We're working up some other potential schedule changes before we announce everything. But, yeah... they like us.
Great news!

I loved the site. The bathrooms were clean. The ...

FAST Open Autocross - April 7 - Brooksville

Sharpen your slalom knife. This will be a revision to that course we did last year that had five very different slaloms on it.

Dedicated autocross site

Figured as much. Just didn't want to have an idea no one has thought of or considered no matter how bad of idea it might be. I'll go back to meaning well with my mouth shut :rolling:

I didn't think it was a NPO, but saw someone else mention it, so wasn't sure. Would be WAY to much hassle to set up ...

Surprised there hasn't been any other comments bringing this thread back to light given the recent news.

I have a buddy who works for a company called Welfont. They specialize in helping NPO's buy real estate by finding sellers willing to sell to NPO at a significant discount, while providing ...

Brooksville - Better enjoy it while you can

It's not going to help immediately, but we're already in the initial planning "feasibility study" stages of figuring out what it would take to build or buy an autocross facility. When we're ready, if we decide that it CAN be done, we will be doing some Crowd Funding to get the ball rolling.

But ...

Anything we can do to help?

Think we can start a gofundme and get enough to some land and pavement? I've seen gofundme's for less deserving ideas.....lol
Stupid stuff that gets a lot of money from gofundme usually goes viral, then all the money comes in. Autocross isn't something that goes viral ...

Wow. This sucks.

Has there been any change with the dog tracks now that that has been outlawed?

The cryptic behind-the-scenes Mayorism here is that Doug is quietly trying to get a seat on the board of the Hernando Airport Authority or whatever they call themselves. He's been monitoring the proceedings of the county there for years, he's got his finger on the pulse of the situation, and is ...

Trailer fix-up day Nov 10

Sally had this idea to stencil "Close The Damned Lid" or some such on the cooler lids. Couldn't hurt, I suppose.

Anyway... I'm sure I'll be there.

I can cut some vinyl stencils if you want.....lol

I don't know how well a sticker would stay stuck to the lid. I tried to make some for a cooler ...

That is pretty much what happened :)

FALL came two days late for some Sept 23 racers

Another idea that has been proposed, and maybe someday we'll do it at a Classic event, is the "no map, no course walk" event. Someone even suggested having like 3 pairs of people go out and put the course together on-the-fly with no pre-drawn design. (basically, old school autocross setup... that's ...

Adjusting Ride Height Without Messing Up Corner Balance

Hello,

I recently changed my wheels and tires out to a wider front wheel and tire. I am getting some rubbing now. My fenders are already shot, so I am going to pull them slightly and see if I can get it to stop. My main concern is damaging a tire if it catches on the inside of the fender wrong on a ...

9/16 - Alignments in the Groj?

Very cool. Sounds like you have much more patience and skill than the guy who did my s2000. I needed to touch up quite a bit of my front fenders, even though in the long run it didn't matter too much, some soft tire rub when I went with a lower offset wheel ground them nice and smooth and even in ...
